Thanks guys for the input.

I have disconnected the box from the net and will replace it as soon as I 
get into town. Fortunately the only data on the box is samba/windows stuff 
so it should be reasonably safe to copy it straight across - I'll chmod it 
all to make sure nothing is executable.

I think this box was hacked because of a weak root password (not of  my 
choosing)

thanks again for the input
